Performance synopsis

We focused not so much on the story of Don Quixote as on the values it brings. It is a story of great friendship and devotion and how much we can learn by traveling and learning new cultures. We tried to draw the universal from Cervantes‘ novel and translate it into the language of dance by means of movement. For example, we can see the mice and rats of 19th-century Madrid, the bustle of the market in Barcelona or the Flamenco fiesta in Seville Square. We invite you to enjoy the culture of Spain. This performance is dedicated to children.
